To all whom, it may concern.-

Be it known that we, GEORGE KENNERLEY, a subject of Queen Victoria, and BERNARD CREIGHTON, a citizen of the United States, residents of Paterson, Pass-aic county, State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful improvement in paints to be used in trans ferring patterns or designs, after the same have been printed or stamped on paper, to the fab ric to be ornamented or worked, of which the following is a specification.

The object of our improvement is to produce a composition or paint for transfer-papers which will be fast fixed and not capable of be ing defaced while handling the pattern-paper preparatory to transferring the pattern by heat to the fabric to be ornamented or worked.

()ur improved composition or paint consists of the following ingredients, combined in the proportions stated, viz: For blue color,'one ounce each of ultramarine-blue and resin melted and made liquid by onergill of spirits of turpentine; for gold color, one ounce each of chrome andresin melted and made liquid by one gill of spirits of turpentine; for white color, one ounce of snow-white and the same of resin melted and made liquid by one gill of spirits of turpentine. These ingredients are to be mingled by agitation.

In using the above-named composition or paint, the same may be applied to the printers block or stamp, the same as ink, being (No gpecimens.)

rubbing off of the composition, as the same is fast and fixed, and not capable of being defaced or spoiled by ordinary handling.

The design or pattern may be transferred to the fabric to be ornamented or worked by laying the transfer-papers on the fabric and transferring the pattern from the same to the fabric by means of heat, a hot iron, or other wise, in the usual way.

Having described our composition and its use, we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent A transfer-paper paint consisting of resin, melted in one gill of spirits of turpentine to every ounce of the resin, and mixed with a weight of coloring-matter about'equal to that of the resin, substantially as described.
